Animal Crossing and Kirby coming to Japanese Wii in '08 (Joystiq)

[R.O.B.]

Filed under: Nintendo Wii

According to Nintendo financial documents, "social networking MMO" Animal Crossing and a new Kirby title will hit the Japanese Wii this year, along with some other notable titles. ShackNews posted the Nintendo financial docs showing that beyond Animal Crossing and Kirby, there is also Wii Music, Disaster: Day of Crisis, Super Mario Stadium Family Baseball, and Everyone's Common Knowledge Television -- that last one sounds like it might stay in Japan.

The document also shows that Mario Kart Wii is still expected for the spring in North America and Q2 for Europe, but there isn't much more beyond that at this time. That doesn't mean Nintendo doesn't have something up its sleeve, just that it isn't on this financial document from Nintendo Japan.

Animal Crossing I would have expected, but Kirby returning so soon after his previous game's cancellation? Now that's quite a surprise.

Cancellation or console transfer?
